Authentication Required in a Webservice to be consumed in an Adobe Form

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am working with Webservice generated through ABAP, This Webservice is to consumed in an Adobe Form.

Now, my requirement is to authenticate the user wishing to execute this webservice from an offline form.

If at time of creating the webservice i select the Authentication parameter to be low, it doesn't prompt me for a user Id password and directly hrows an error saying " Error attempting to read from file: "URL of the webservice"".

Please help!!

Any inputs will be appreciated.

Many Thanks,

Hi Amita,

For the Web Services, if you maintain the Logon Credentials in SICF TCode then it may not ask for the UserId and Password at the runtime of the WebService. If you do not enter any logon credentials then at the execution time it will be asking the logon credentials.

OR

You can set the Basic Authentication at the scripting level as:

Do call the WebService from the JavaScript or from the FormCalc, and when assigning the URL to a variable do concatenate at the end of the link with "&sap-username=username&sap-password=password".

Hello,

webervices requiring authentication are not yet supported. You can only use anonyme webservices.

Kind regards,
